The Crisis of Self

Author: Dr. Christopher K. Slaton July 8, 2025 Duration: 6:59
Send us Fan Mail What if everything we thought we knew about children's mental health was incomplete? Dr. Christopher Kevin Slaton introduces a paradigm shift with Human Systems Science—a groundbreaking approach that transforms how we understand and address mental illness in children.

Dr. Christopher K. Slaton guides the conversations on Brain's Body Podcast: Help to Improve Mental, Physical, and Emotional Healing Through Self-Learning. Here, the focus is on how our earliest and most impactful life experiences-those that occur at home, in school, throughout our neighborhoods, and later in our workplaces-fundamentally shape our patterns of living, learning, and reacting. The dialogue digs into the often-overlooked connections between these events and our present-day well-being. Rather than offering quick fixes, this podcast provides a framework for understanding yourself through the lens of human systems. You’ll hear discussions centered on the real needs of children, parents, educators, and helping professionals, all aimed at fostering genuine self-learning. Each episode is an invitation to explore the intricate links between your history and your current mental, physical, and emotional state, providing insights that can illuminate a path toward deeper, more integrated healing. Tune in for thoughtful explorations that make the complex dynamics of personal development accessible and actionable.
